Omni Austin

Frommer's Review

Part of the posh Austin Center office and retail complex, the Omni's spectacular 200-foot rise of sun-struck glass and steel leaves you feeling simultaneously dwarfed and exhilarated. Rooms are far less overwhelming -- they're not especially large, and ceilings tend to be low. But they're comfortable enough and well equipped. If you need to hole up for a while and your company is footing the bill, your best bet is one of the condominium rooms -- studio efficiencies with full kitchens, walk-in closets, and jetted tubs. If you're here on vacation, you're not going to be spending that much time indoors, what with the hotel's proximity to all the downtown sights, but the Omni's rooftop pool, sun deck, and Jacuzzi (with terrific city views) are an inducement to lounge around. The hotel's Get Fit program gives you incentive to exercise, offering free fitness kits and healthy snacks; for $25, a treadmill will be brought to your room (inducement to leave or stay? Only you can say . . . ).
